1.1.1 About ActiveSync
The Microsoft PC connectivity software, ActiveSync, can be
used to connect the NETBOOK PRO to PCs running Win-
dows 95/98/ME/2000/XP or NT 4.0. By connecting the
NETBOOK PRO to a PC with a cable and running Active-
Sync on the PC, you can:
• View your NETBOOK PRO files from Windows
Explorer by using the Mobile Device icon in the PC’s
My Computer window.
• Drag and drop files between the NETBOOK PRO
and the PC in the same way that you would between
PC drives, and they will be automatically converted to
the appropriate file format at the same time.
• Synchronize e-mail and your address book on the
NETBOOK PRO with the PC to keep them in step
with each other.
• Back up your NETBOOK PRO files to the PC, then
restore them from the PC to the NETBOOK PRO
again, if needed.
For detailed information, please refer to the documentation
supplied with Microsoft Active Sync or the NETBOOK PRO
Win CE User Manual.
1.2 Caring For The NETBOOK PRO
Screen
When used with the approved stylus, the NETBOOK PRO
screen is very resistant to wear and impact and should last for
a considerable time. Use of any object, other than the
approved stylus, may result in damage to the NETBOOK
PRO screen.
To maintain the life of the NETBOOK PRO screen, keep the
screen clean. To clean the screen: switch off the NETBOOK
PRO and use a soft, clean, dry cloth to gently wipe the
screen. (If the NETBOOK PRO is set to turn on automati-
cally when the screen is tapped, you should turn this prefer-
ence off before cleaning the screen.)
Warning: Under no circumstances use chemical solvents
to clean the screen.
Charging
To avoid damage to the NETBOOK PRO or the NETBOOK
PRO battery packs, use only Psion Teklogix approved charg-
ers and docking stations.
Backup Battery
The NETBOOK PRO has a backup battery designed to retain
data while the main battery pack is charging or changed over.
The backup battery is a pair of AAA alkaline batteries.These
may be replaced by the user. See “Internal Backup Battery”
on page 10.
Important: If both the main battery pack and the backup
battery are allowed to fully discharge, all user
data held in RAM will be lost.
Do not use rechargeable cells as backup bat-
teries. For maximum data retention time in
backup mode, use only non-rechargable cells
as backup batteries.
